Bryan Stinespring (born October 12, 1963) is the offensive line coach for the Maryland Terrapins.[1] Stinespring was most recently the run game coordinator and offensive line coach at James Madison University from 2016-2017. He was previously the tight ends coach (1993–1997, 2006–2015) and recruiting coordinator for the Virginia Tech Hokies football program. He was a full-time member of head coach Frank Beamer's staff from 1993-2015. Throughout his tenure in Blacksburg, Stinespring held a number of other positions including offensive line coach (1993–2005), recruiting coordinator (1994–2001), assistant head coach (2001) and offensive coordinator (2002–2012).[2]

Following Beamer's retirement at the end of the 2015 season, Stinespring joined the staff at his alma mater James Madison where he served as offensive line coach and run-game coordinator. [3]

Criticism

Stinespring had faced criticism from the fans[4] and a player[5] for offensive output during his time as offensive coordinator, which compares poorly with that of his predecessors under Frank Beamer.[4]

In 2008, sports columnist Norm Wood has commented that Stinespring's offensive production in recent years has been "abysmal", and that he heard fans chanting "Fire Stinespring" before one home game.[6]

While Stinespring faced criticism for offensive production, he has also been praised for his abilities as a recruiter.[5][6] Players have also expressed their appreciation for Stinespring as a personal coach, and for his ability to recruit talented new players to the franchise.[5]
